Hi,
I've got a problem getting my wireless card to work with Debian Sarge on my laptop (HP Pavillion ze4204s).
It is a CNet card that uses the Atmel drivers at Source Forge. http://atmelwlandriver.sourceforge.net/
The card seems to be detected and working. The receive signal is flashing when I'm in an are with wireless access.
The problem is that I'm unable to receive an ip address. I've got the interface (eth1) configured as dhcp in /etc/network/interfaces, but what happens is that the dhcp client times out after several attempts.
I've also tried to receive an address using the command # pump -i eth1 but this also times out after a few minutes.
The wireless card is working in WinXP, so I know it's something wrong with my configuration.
Ideas anyone?
Some information about a few files and commands that might be helpful is shown below.
Regards
